Don Whiteside
I’m Don. I live in Arlington Virginia (“Occupied DC” as far as I’m concerned. Retro-retrocession now!) and get up to a variety of nerdy things. I was very proud of We Love DC and wrangling authors and websites was good practice for parenting.
You don’t have to follow me back! This isn’t twitter 15 years ago! If you’re interested in my blather, great, welcome, happy to have you. But I am not offended if I’m interested in what you post but you’re not interested in what I choose to talk about.

@mii @cstross I spent decades of my career haranguing management to spend an extra $500 on better computing gear to make their almost six-figure programmers more efficient. But now we’ve got management haranguing employees to use this ephemeral technology. I don’t get it.
“Hey we got you this thing to make you more productive and we’re gonna watch comparative performance and if you’re falling behind we’re gonna have words” would at least make business sense. This is mirror universe shit.
